This paper proposes an algorithm that drives a unicycle type robot to a desired path, including obstacle avoidance capabilities. The path-following control design relies on Lyapun...
Subsumption architectures are a well-known model for behaviour-based robotic control. The overall behaviour is achieved by defining a hierarchy of increasingly sophisticated behav...
We describe a model-based height controller for a hopping robot with a pneumatically powered leg. The controller explicitly models variation in the leg angle and height. Using an ...
—Wheeled-mobile robots operating in human environments typically encounter small steps. Surmounting steps is normally not considered when determining peak torque needs, yet it ca...
